And while I personally just looked at every one of them, I am pretty sure I am not allowed to give you the link to the other "forum" where they are posted, even though they are not based in the USA.

None the less, insane pics, find them and check out the pics. Blow your mind kind of colour.

Yes - shame on you all!!! :D Quite the site to see so many auusi acans all in one location!

Actually there were a few not in the identification grid they devised (8 rows of 10), so it couild have been more than 81.

I replied to those who sent PM's.

Worth the drive let me tell you - and I am not even a huge acan guy but I will likely be getting in one some of these. Truely premium stuff.

They let you bring that stuff across the border? I had to get CITIES Permits, Fish & Wild Life Import/Export License and all kinds of stuff to get them here legally:confused:

If you say so.

Some people might think it is worth a try, but for me and my business, we would not even risk it. I'm not even sure of what would happen if you got caught but I would not even want to be put in that position. :eek2:

Not worth a try at all. They will take the coral if they find it and these are not cheap. They also may fine you big time.

Yes I replied to all PM's.

And no it is not worth taking the chance going across the border fellow reefers. The store is happy to coordinate a CITES for those serious buyers/hobbiests.

It was neat to meet those who travelled to our neck of the woods to see these corals. Some travelled 9 hours!!! Impressive. These guys are more screwed up than me - and that's saying something :)

Since USFW is closed this weekend the only way to bring them back would be illegally. Maybe the the USFW should be notified of all this. Jen & Eric You should see them they are impressive :)

You can't bring corals across the Canada/US border?

Eitherway... if you do smuggle them.. remember that they can have sharp skeletons so don't put them too place...sensitive ;)

Went to Windsor, and asked about local stores up there, and you do need a special permit, but I have never had my car searched or anything. It would be very easy to just go up there and load up your car with stuff, and come back, basically Windsor is only for partying and not much else so the border people do not even care.

Qualified buyers are getting their corals shipped to the US complete with CITES permits. Nobody in their right mind would risk smuggling these across the border based on the cost of them, and because the store is willing to get the permits for you...

how much do these permits cost?

Creetin
